However, Parallels does, and it's a lot less > expensive. I have eComStation working in a Parallels VM here. I made a test install on a VMware Server installation (Host: AMD64 + Gentoo 2006.1). I created a VM (OS type other). Then i exit the console, changed in the *.vmx file the key "guestOS" to guestOS="os2experimental" and start the installation of OS/2 Warp 4 (german) from CD. Somewhere in between i got two SYS... messages. After a reboot the install completes and seems to be ok now. Hope that helps. regards Petric -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
